Thanks for reading!
The man with the bronze card sat closer to Arthur, “You know, once I win my next fight. I will be promoted to silver rank, so I can proceed to the other brims on the higher floors to compete for better pay. " He said. “That's good,” Arthur replied. “Yeah, it is! I just want to get enough money to get the armor I need to clear the 25th floor. And when I climb as high as the 30th floor, I will retire with all the money that I have saved, marry a good woman, have some children, and die of old age on my bed.” He said. “That's good that you have a plan. I hope you achieve it. " Arthur said. “Well, it's just a dream for now.” The man said. “Anyway, what is your alias?” He asked. “My alias is The Beast,” Arthur said. “What about yours?” He asked “The Beast, huh? Well, considering your muscles, I don't think that it is a stretch to call you a beast. " The man said. “My alias is Black Sun. Nice to meet you. He added. “Nice to meet you too,” Arthur replied. A man suddenly opened a door a
“Hahaha! I expected you to be strong. But I didn't expect you to be that strong! " Black Sun said. Arthur had just finished his fight and was waiting in the waiting room for his next fight. “Anyway, I will have to go now. I’ll see you soon! " Black Sun said as he walked out of the door while waving his hand goodbye to Arthur. Arthur also waved back and looked at the new bronze card that he had just received for winning his first Brim fight. “Beast! Cody! It's time that you both fight each other! " A man shouted. “Alright!” Cody, who was wearing a normal t-shirt and pants, walked up to the man to fight. Arthur also followed and was led to the arena to fight again. The commentator walked into the middle and put his mana-powered microphone near his mouth and started talking. “Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the 155th fight of the evening! Presenting, the hottest bronze card fighter in the Brim of the day, with 1 win, no losses, and an impressive knockout record of 56 seconds!
“Leave the trash talk for the arena, and don't waste our time!” The staff shouted at Gideon and walked toward the arena. Gideon then walked to the opposite side of the arena and just continued staring at Arthur, and he started to look angry as he was biting on his own teeth, “I will kill you. You filthy animal.” He said as he continued staring at Arthur. Arthur, who was also interested in creating tension to entertain the crowd, started to walk toward Gideon and acted as if he was angry. Gideon, seeing this, ran towards Arthur with his fist ready to punch Arthur. “You want to fight!" Come and fight me like a man! " Arthur shouted as he and Gideon were stopped by the referee. “If both of you stop! I will have no choice but to revoke your bronze card! " The referee shouted. “You will only fight when I say that you can fight!” He shouted again. Although the referee looked stressed, the viewers were enjoying the show. Some of them even started cheering. Arthur and Gideon walked back
“Thank you!” Gideon said as he happily received the money that he worked for and kept it in his inventory. “You're welcome! And uh, if it's okay with you, can I get any information on the guy that I will be fighting in the night? " Arthur asked Gideon. “Oh? You mean the hundredth ranked in the Bronze rankings, right? " Gideon asked. “Yeah, that guy,” Arthur replied. “I have fought against him before. But it didn't end that well for me. Although I did manage to defend against him for a bit, he still managed to beat me down to a pulp. And that guy has no sportsmanship at all! A very arrogant guy, that fellow, but he has the strength to back up the arrogance. " Gideon replied. “Hmm, what about his fighting style?” Arthur asked. “I think he is a normal human from Arth. And the rumor says that he was a nobody in the world that he came from. I heard that the martial arts that he learned originated from one of those Murim worlds. And from my experience, he should be using the crouching
‘This guy almost looks like a zombie," Arthur thought as he saw the opponent that was in front of him. ‘Clearly, he hasn't gotten enough sleep.’ Arthur thought. The Crouching Sprinter bent his legs and, just like a spring, he jumped towards where Arthur was standing and managed to land a front kick at Arthur. But thankfully, Arthur was in his defensive boxing stance and used his hands to block the kick. To make everyone think that he wasn't strong, Arthur pretended to move backward from the force of the kick. The Crouching Sprinter then bent his legs and tried to use his legs to sweep Arthur off the ground, but failed after Arthur jumped to avoid having his legs swept. As Arthur landed, he grabbed one of the Crouching Sprinter's hands and tried to bring him down, but the opponent managed to get away from the attack like a snake slithering out of a tough situation. After coming out of the wrestling hold, the Crouching Sprinter then threw a left jab towards Arthur’s face and missed s
“Sigh. I told you that I am not interested in getting any sponsors or joining any of your guilds. " Arthur said to the men that were in front of him. After winning the fight, that branch's Brim managers met with him alongside other businessmen and small guild leaders. They all saw his capability for fighting and tried to recruit him, and all of them had a different purpose. Some had noble reasons, some not so much. But most saw dollar signs above Arthur’s head and could smell money from him. “Please rethink. I will be offering you $10,000 monthly! I don't think you can get that kind of money here.” One man who was holding his burning cigar said. “Bah! Ten thousand is nothing! Kid, I will give $12,000 a month if you join the guild.” A middle age woman said. “Kid, I am not interested in making you join a guild, but what I am interested in is… You know what? I’ll just give you this,” A man who looked like he was in his 50s said as he gave Arthur a paper card with some words. “If you l
Arthur picked up the sword and as he swung it, he could feel that the movement of the sword had really increased, but thankfully it wasn't fast enough to cause any trouble for Arthur. In fact, Arthur felt like he could thrust and slash anything with his new sword. Arthur then picked up his spear and tried the spearing motion, and he could feel that the spear itself was ripping through the air. “This is amazing…” Arthur said as he laid the spear back on the table. And as he picked up the halberd, he could already feel that something was different about it. He then tried shadow fighting using the halberd and realized when he was using the tip of the halberd, the thrust would be faster and more accurate. When he was using the hammer part of the weapon, he could feel the sudden weight increase and felt as if he could deal extra damage using it. However, when he tried a slashing motion, he felt no difference when he tried slashing using the halberd before it was upgraded. Despite having
Sun Wukong rubbed his chin and closed his eyes as he was thinking about what Arthur had just said. “That choice of yours to bring the MPA makes sense. But I have another idea that might be better suited for this kind of mission. " Sun Wukong said as he looked at Arthur. “What could that idea be?” Arthur asked while trying to think of any other possible alternative that they could lean towards. “Why don’t we use the demons that we have kept in the mob box?” Sun Wukong asked as he took out a mob box from his inventory and laid it on the table for Jonathan and Arthur to see. “The Demon King Army that we fought in the gate are all inside this mob box?” Arthur asked. “That's right. They are powerful enough to protect themselves and are clearly competent and skilled enough to execute this mission, so the demons will be much better suited for this mission than everyone else. And since they are mobs and not players, they can climb the tower without needing to go through the gate. " Sun Wuk
